Married to the arrogant king

In Everton, the wedding preparation of King Carl and Princess Zara was going on. Invitations were sent to every king in the seven nations.

ANOTHER NATION (somewhere in Neptune)

King Arthur sat on his throne and attended to matters concerning his nation. King Arthur and Carl were mortal enemies.

Carl’s parents were killed by Arthur’s parents, in a battle long ago between Everton and Neptune, and Arthurs parents were later killed by Carl after he succeeded the throne.

“Your majesty, King Carl’s wedding to princess Zara of Azrael will take place soon, he even sent you an invitation.”

He looked at the invitation in his hand, Carl you dare to invite me to your wedding. He felt his blood boiling, no matter how hard he tried, Carl was always ahead of him.

But this time, he won’t let him win. He wants to get married to the princess of Azrael, I will never let that happen, I won’t let him form an alliance with Azrael, Arthur thought.

“Your majesty, are you going to accept his invitation?” Arnold, his right-hand man asked.

Arthur smirked evilly, he had heard tales of how beautiful the princess of Azrael was.

“Of course, I should accept his invitation, since he was so kind enough to invite me, I will surely grace him with my presence. I will also make sure not to leave empty-handed because the princess of Azrael will be coming back with me, she will become my bride instead,” Arthur muttered, laughing evilly.

Carl wouldn’t know what hit him, Arthur thought. For a very long time, Arthur has been planning against Carl, it seems like he found a perfect opportunity to execute his plan.

ZARA’S POV

Everyone has been so busy with the preparation for the wedding. I sat in my chambers, which was also the king’s Chambers, I tried many times to get another room, but queen Catherine always refuses.

It has been a while, since I last saw the arrogant king, and I was so happy. At least I have the bed to myself and I also didn’t have to deal with his arrogance.

“Princess,” Lia yelled running into the room.

“Guess what,” she mumbled, in excitement.

“King Carl fell on his face while addressing his council,” I replied, and Lia chuckled.

“No your parents are here in Everton, they also brought you aunt anna and cousin with them.”

What! My parents were in Everton, they didn’t even send me a letter to tell me they were coming. I knew they would be here for the wedding, but I didn’t know they will here this early.

“Where are they now?”

“In the throne room with king Carl,” Lia blurted out

I ran out of my chambers, with Lia trailing after me. I’ve really missed my parents, and I couldn’t wait to see them.

I got to the throne room, where Carl welcomed my parents.

“Father, mother,” I called, rushing toward them. I threw myself on their body almost bringing them down.

Zara, mother called with tears in her eyes, hugging me tight, that I almost couldn’t breath.

“My sweet child, I’ve missed you, how have you been?” mother asked, scanning me.

“Mother, I’m fine, see,” I muttered, twirling, and she chuckled.

I glanced over at father, before going to hug him. Father gained weight a little and also looked less stressed.

“Father,” I called, hugging him.

“My child,” he said with a smile, patting my head.

“Father, you’ve gained weight, what has mother been giving you?” I teased.

“What can I say, I don’t have you around to trouble me any more, so maybe thats why I gained weight,” he replied, and I rolled my eyes.

“You forgot about me Zara,” Eric my little cousin mumbled, with an eye roll. He was the same age as prince Aiden, and also very mischievous.

He always likes to play tricks.

“Eric,” I called, with a smile, crunching down to his level.

He rolled his little eyes again pouting his mouth.

“You forgot all about me because of that bad man,” he blurted out, pointing at Carl.

Carl rolled his eyes, mumbling some words incoherently under his breath.

“Of course not Eric, how can I ever forget my little prince.”

“But you didn’t send any letters,” Eric retorted.

“I’m sorry Eric, I promise it won’t happen again.”

I turned towards my aunt Anna only to see her looking dreamily at Carl. Aunt anna, was my father’s younger sister, who lost her husband, she was also Eric’s mother.

“Aunt, I called, but she didn’t answer.

Aunt, I called again this time louder, she immediately snapped out of her dream land, turning towards me.

Zara, she squealed, pulling me away to a corner. Did I mention my aunt was a drama queen.

“Oh my goodness! she yelled, once we were out of site, fanning herself with her hands.

“The king is so hot and dreamy, oh my God! Zara is he human. I’ve heard stories of how ruthless and arrogant he was, but they failed to mention that he looked like a Greek god. I thought he was ugly, only to find out now that he’s was so handsome,” She muttered, breathlessly.

“Aunt, don’t let looks deceive you. He’s the devil and he’s very arrogant.”

“Forget that Zara, as long as he’s this handsome. If only I was your age I would marry him instead of you. Zara tell me now how is he in bed? My goodness, I’m sure his a beast in bed,” aunt squealed, and I immediately covered her mouth before someone heard our conversation.

“Aunt, stopped asking, I don’t know, we haven’t had sex yet.”

“What, you haven’t done anything yet? Goodness, Zara, I’m disappointed in you, you mean all that hotness I just saw in there is wasting right now, and I’m sure he’s also has a big one down there” aunt yelled.

Goodness, she needs to stop yelling before someone hears us.

“Aunt, you need to keep it down. I’m not in any hurry to have sex with the king, after all I’m getting married to him, so we have all our lives.

“Oh Lord! all your lives,” aunt squealed, Oh my God Zara, I’m so jealous.

“Okay aunt let’s go now, I’m sure they must be looking for us,” I said, walking away. I knew if I don’t leave there now, she would keep going on and on about it.

“Zara, you need to listen,” she called after me, but I didn’t listen, instead I increased my pace in other to get away from her.

A feast was held at the dinning hall, to welcome my parents.

I sat very far away from my aunt to avoid her conversation about sex, but that didn’t stop her at all, because immediately after the feast, she kept following me around.

“Zara, you can’t avoid this, I’m telling you, do not keep the king waiting, give him your body, seduced him, make him mad about you, before someone else takes him away.

“Aunt, I don’t want to seduce anyone, and it’s not as if the king likes me.”

“Forget that Zara, you must seduced the king, he’s a man after all and you are very beautiful and also have the body of a goddess. so what’s stopping you.”

“Aunt, but love is also important.”

“Zara, seduction is also important, if you don’t listen to me, I’ll keep bothering you about it.”

I was so tired of aunt anna’s blabbering, I knew if I didn’t agree with her she wouldn’t stop.

“Aunt, enough, I will seduced the king,” I yelled.

“And how do you intend on doing that,” someone said from behind, startling me.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
